Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an outlet device having a housing which at a water through-flow opening is attachable to a water outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting, wherein the water through-flow opening is adjoined by at least one mechanism which is disposed within the housing of the device and is configured for generating at least one pulsating water jet and/or for increasing the flow rate of the tap water exiting the water outlet of the outlet fitting.
  • wet razor blade heads can only be cleaned with great difficulty by via a usual water tap.
  • the water jet exiting the water tap is too soft in order for sufficient cleaning to be achieved. This is inter alia due to the fact that the water jet is mixed with air by an aerated jet regulator, a so-called jet aerator.
  • a cleaning jet projector for domestic water taps which is disposed in a self-retaining manner on the outlet pipe or on the water jet aerator that is screwed to the latter is known from DE 20 2006 004 971 U1. Jet bores are disposed on the outlet of said cleaning jet projector, said jet bores being configured for generating water jets which can exert a cleaning effect without coinciding with the other, in each case neighboring, water jets so as to form one consolidated jet.
  • a device for cleaning a wet razor blade head is furthermore known from U.S. Pat. No. 4,838,949 A, said device comprising a flow opening that is directed into a chamber, wherein the tap water is projected by a deflection plate that is located in the chamber onto the wet razor blade head that is introducible into the chamber.
  • a device for rinsing a razor blade head is known from U.S. Pat. No. 4,941,492 A, said device being capable of being placed onto a water tap and receiving tap water at the line pressure.
  • the device channels the tap water in order for the flow rate to be increased, so as to achieve therefrom a directed “high pressure” water jet for cleaning razor blades.
  • the razor blade is introduced into a lower cavity of the device, where said razor blade is cleaned by the water jet with tap water which is directed under high pressure through a series of lines into the cavity.
  • the present invention is based on the object of achieving a device which eliminates the aforementioned problems and which is suitable for permitting a plurality of water jets, in particular cleaning jets, that are small in the cross section to pulsate in an alternating manner, for example across the longitudinal face of a razor blade.
  • the device according to the invention comprises a housing which comprises which is attachable by a water through-flow opening thereof to an outlet of a water tap, said water through-flow opening being adjoined by at least one mechanism which is disposed within the housing of the device and is configured for generating at least one pulsating water jet and/or for increasing the flow rate of the tap water exiting the outlet of the water tap.
  • a device of the type mentioned at the outset is characterized according to the invention in that the mechanism is supplied tap water by way of a plurality of channels that delimit the flow cross section of the tap water exiting the outlet of the water tap, wherein the mechanism is configured as a rotary valve which comprises a plurality of blades which are disposed on a common axle beside one another below in each case at least one channel and which direct the tap water to a water outlet.
  • FIG. 1 shows the device according to the invention in a schematic sectional lateral view
  • FIG. 2 shows the device in the frontal view.
  • the device according to the invention which here is also referred to as the outlet device, comprises at least one mechanism 21 which is configured for generating a pulsating water jet and/or for increasing the flow rate of the tap water exiting the outlet of the water tap.
  • This mechanism 21 is advantageously configured such that the prevailing water pressure when opening the water tap is directed through a channel plate 28 having a plurality of channels 22 a , 22 b , 22 c (bores) in one row, said channels 22 a , 22 b , 22 c opening onto the rotary valve.
  • the device 1 furthermore comprises at least one water outlet 24 .
  • the blades 220 a , 220 b , 220 c are disposed so as to be mutually offset at a defined angle on the axle 23 .
  • the axle 23 conjointly with the blades 220 a , 220 b , 220 c by means of the tap water exiting from the at least one respective channel 22 a , 22 b , 22 c of the water tap is set in rotation by at least one blade 220 a , 220 b , 220 c.
  • the arrangement of the blades 220 a , 220 b , 220 c is most particularly advantageously conceived in such a manner that the tap water of at least one channel 22 a , 22 b , 22 c , depending on the rotary position of the blades 220 a , 220 b , 220 c , is either retained by at least one blade 220 a , 220 b , 220 c , or on at least one blade 220 a , 220 b , 200 c flows to a water outlet 24 .
  • the blades 220 a , 220 b , 220 c in terms of the angle thereof are disposed so as to be mutually offset on the axle 23 in such a manner that, independently of the respective rotary position of the blades 220 a , 220 b , 220 c , at least one blade 220 a , 220 b , 220 c prevents a throughflow of the tap water from at least one channel.
  • a pulsating water jet having a water pressure that is provided so as to depend on the design embodiment of the diameter of the channels 22 a , 22 b , 22 c is created.
  • the device 1 has at least one bearing device 25 for a rotatable mounting of the axle 23 in the housing 2 .
  • a splash protector 3 is provided on the water outlet 24 , said splash protector 3 being formed from ribs 30 that are vertically aligned and configured so as to be flexible and/or elastic as well as chamber-like.
  • the splash protector 23 is preferably disposed in an annular groove 31 on the housing chamber 2 b.
  • the device according to the invention in terms of the embodiment thereof is not limited to the preferred embodiments set forth above. Rather, a multiplicity of variations of design embodiments which, even in the case of a fundamentally different embodiment, utilize the solution illustrated are conceivable.
  • the present invention relates to a device ( 1 ) for cleaning, for example, a single-blade or multi-blade wet razor blade head, having a housing ( 2 ) which comprises a water through-flow opening ( 20 ) that is attachable to an outlet of a sanitary outlet fitting, said water through-flow opening ( 20 ) being adjoined by at least one mechanism ( 21 ) which is disposed within the housing ( 2 ) of the device ( 1 ) and is configured for generating at least one pulsating water jet and/or for increasing the flow rate of the tap water exiting the outlet of the water tap.
  • the device according to the invention is characterized in that the mechanism ( 21 ) is supplied tap water by way of a plurality of channels ( 22 a , 22 b , 22 c ) that delimit the flow cross section of the tap water exiting the water outlet of the sanitary outlet fitting, wherein the mechanism ( 21 ) is configured as a rotary valve which comprises a plurality of blades (multi-blade) which are disposed on a common axle ( 23 ) beside one another below in each case at least one channel ( 22 a , 22 b , 22 c ) and which direct the tap water to a water outlet ( 24 ).
  • a rotary valve which comprises a plurality of blades (multi-blade) which are disposed on a common axle ( 23 ) beside one another below in each case at least one channel ( 22 a , 22 b , 22 c ) and which direct the tap water to a water outlet ( 24 ).
